new holland 4 ever Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 With the straw season just starting I thought perhaps some people might be interested in a few of these high density bales for the uh krone baler (I think they also fit the claas) If somebody gives me the measurments i can make them other sizes. The string is not in it's definit form, nots will be smaller as well as the thickness and color. round bales : they can easily be made to suit any baler and they can be made to any diameter. They look "roled" like the real ones for more realism. medium density bales : These are the small bales for the older balers such as a new holland 376. I do not have the exact measurements to suit the 1/32 balers so if someone could give some to me I would be very gratefull. Scatter material : All the bales will be made from these two colors. The light stuff : The dark stuff : (the bales in photo are made from this) Price list : Round bales : Width 40mm diameter 50mm : 1.25£ High density bales : To suit the krone baler : 1.25£ To suit other balers : (need the measurments) Medium density bales : The ones presented above : 0.20£ For any questions, ask away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 They are the best bales yet! Hugely realistic and a good price to boot. I'm moving house at the moment but in the future I think I will buy some Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jez Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 £25 for one big bale? I would be interested to accompany my bale chaser but need to clarify the price first. Great job though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
new holland 4 ever Posted July 15, 2009 Author Share Posted July 15, 2009 1.25£/ bale not 25£, what a rip off that would be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 rich, would you sell some material so i could make the bales to fit my cooks gear?? the trailer ect, bit hard to give sizes as i usally build to fit them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
new holland 4 ever Posted July 15, 2009 Author Share Posted July 15, 2009 No problem, I forgot to mention in the initial post that I can also sell the material. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 thanks for that rich, will drop you a pm when i get sorted tell you what mate try some fishing line for the string??? you can get orange stuff, might be easier to work with, on the rounds try scrim tape, its the stuff they use for dry wall plastering, but is a mesh like material, sticky on one side and cheap for about 50m plus per roll Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elgan hughes Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 hi i am just woundering are you still taking orders for these bails? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Ferguson Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 They look excellent - well done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
new holland 4 ever Posted June 20, 2011 Author Share Posted June 20, 2011 For those of you who are still wandering, I am now making these again, in fact I have improved the round bales and changed the twine on the square ones for finer fishing line. The material of the round bales is now finer, wich makes it even more realistic. Both types of bales are 1.25£ each. I shall soon also be producing hay bales, but I am still looking for the exact colour (a subtle mix between brown green and grey I think?). Note : I am currently nearly out of dark material...

Lady Ferguson Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 They're excellent - how long does each bale take, hun? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
new holland 4 ever Posted June 21, 2011 Author Share Posted June 21, 2011 When I'm efficient each one takes about 15mins from cutting the sisal string to the end result, but sometimes it can take up to 25mins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

new holland 4 ever Posted June 29, 2011 Author Share Posted June 29, 2011 The sun's been out these past few days so I got a few snaps to illustrate this straw a bit more : Also, I ahev a question regarding hay : what colour do you think scale bales of it should be? I'm thinking of maying dying the sisal into different colours (probably brown, beige, green and grey) and then mixing it up to get something that looks right for different situations such as silage, good hay, hay that's got wet or been left out to long... I'm also thinking of weathering them Any suggestions will be well appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farmersam Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Those photos look so amazing! Just like the real thing! The different colours sounds like a good idea, the light coloured ones look just perfect for fresh hay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
